Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Črna na Koroškem (to here from Ravne na Koroškem or from Šoštanj over the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme), and then we continue driving towards Koprivna and Podpeca. Further, we are ascending by the river Meža, and we drive by it to a crossroad, where the road to Podpeca and Dom na Peci branches off to the right. Higher, near the homestead Mitnek, a macadam road towards Koča na Pikovem branches off to the right. Here we park on an appropriate place near the crossroad.
B) We drive to Luče (to here from Mozirje or from Kamnik over mountain pass Volovljek (Kranjski Rak)), and then we continue driving towards Logarska dolina. In the village Solčava we leave the main road towards Logarska dolina and we continue driving right in the direction of Podolševa, mountain pass Spodnje Sleme and Črna na Koroškem. Further road loses an asphalt covering, and after few kilometers at the crossroad in Podolševa we turn right towards Črna na Koroškem. The road which is further mostly ascending diagonally, eventually brings us to mountain pass Spodnje Sleme. From the mountain pass the road starts descending, and we follow it in the direction of Črna na Koroškem. When after few kilometers we descend to the valley, at the crossroad we turn right towards Črna na Koroškem (left Koprivna). On the main road we are descending towards Črna na Koroškem, and the road at first leads past the turn off into a valley Topla, a little lower also to the turn-off of the road towards Podpeca and Dom na Peci. Higher, near the homestead Mitnek, a macadam road towards Koča na Pikovem branches off to the right. Here we park on an appropriate place near the crossroad.
Path description:
From the crossroad, we go on the right road in the direction of Nagersko and mountain hut Koča na Pikovem (straight Mitnek and the road which continues towards Peca). We at first walk through the forest, and after few minutes we come out of the forest on panoramic Nagersko, where there are few homesteads. Behind the houses, the road returns into the forest, and there we get to the church of St. Helena and few steps ahead to the mountain hut Koča na Pikovem.
